I want to be a scientist when I grow up, Artist-Sao-Zuotang
How was 2022 for you? As the Pandemic has evolved to endemic status, many of us carefully ventured forth to resume some of our regular activities, and now risk assessment and choice-making feels as routine as brushing one’s teeth after eating! For me, believing in science and timely vaccination boosters contribute to keeping ourselves and loved ones safer. Heading into the holidays, I am blending my Cantonese speaking immigrant kin with my extended Norwegian Mexican-American family to celebrate. For many diverse families much effort and emotional labor is expended at the holidays, and I hope we will all be able to take year-end time to rejuvenate and practice self-compassion.
